Now Some April Snow

Sure, it was 75 degrees yesterday, but who's ready for some snow tonight? This isn't a joke, the backside of the cold front that blew through here this morning is bringing in some seriously cold air.

Don't trust snowfall accumulation maps you see from models on this one. First, the ground and roads are still really warm from several days well above freezing. We haven't been below freezing in 4 days, and haven't had sustained freezing temps since March 22-23. So while the atmosphere is going to support some snow tonight, I don't think the ground will hold it.

In fact, I don't think Central Ohio's surface temps will ever get below freezing over the next 24 hours, only 850mb temps will help us with snow. 

Expect rain to change over to snow sometime after dark tonight:

Spring is still that month of transition. Quite a transition here, from a tornado threat to snow in a day.
